How Many Worlds Do You Think That You Have in Your Head?

How Are Kindness, Compassion, and Creativity all Interlinked?
Creatives have used kindness and compassion across all of history to tell their stories. Why do creatives create?

Do You Wing it, Or Do You Create a Plan to Do It?

How Do I Get Myself Back Writing into the Flow, Yo?
Some days you flow better than others with your work. Now that I’ve completed my Void Incursion sci-fi series – apart from editing and then having the book professionally edited – I’m done with the writing I’ve been doing. I am not, of course, done. As I’ve written before, I have planned out 10 more…
How Do Nonfiction Works Directly Connect to Works of Fiction?
How my nonfiction and fiction connect define my overall brand. I began writing fiction some forty years ago. I was 9. That first work of sci-if – called Wildfire – was imaginative and literally colorful (hand-written and illustrated by me). But it might also have caused some psychologists to question my mindset (spoiler alert: The…
